As I understand it, the -fleading-underscore flag is only useful to add a leading underscore for targets that do not have a leading underscore, like linux. It won't accomplish anything on one that already has it, like PE. > Now my problem is that I have a library with symbol names without a > leading underscore.

The fact that symbols don't have a leading underscore is trivial compared to the massive differences between ELF and PE formats. There is just no chance of this working even if you solved the underscore issue.
